Multi-instrumentalist Steven R. Smith inaugurated this specific moniker to explore traditional Central and Eastern European melodies through a highly experimental lens. Utilizing a stark, lo-fi recording aesthetic, the arrangements transform archaic village music into brooding, drone-heavy psychedelia.
